Havelock Public Library

We have a new librarian at our Havelock Library and her name is Shannon Sutton.  She comes to us with eight years experience in the Duplin County public libraries.  She will be graduating with her Masters in Library Science from ECU on Sat., Dec.15th.   We send congratulations to her as she celebrates this accomplishment!  She lives in Lenoir County and is looking forward to working at our library.   Stop in and meet her.  

   There will be more information about the Let’s Talk About It Series coming soon.  

In the meantime the Havelock Literary and Crab Pot Society continues to meet and the next meeting will be Jan.25th at 10:00 am to discuss the book, The World’s Strongest Librarian by Josh Hanagarne.  The books and discussion guides are now available at our library and can be signed out.  I will be glad to “lead” the group if no one else volunteered.  
Claire has agreed take over the communication for our group starting in February.

The luncheon for the library staff will be Dec.17th.  We invite you to bring in a lunch item or treat for these great people.  A small plate of cookies or candy will be appreciated.  Please bring items in by 11:00 am that day.  If you have questions, please email me.  

The Havelock – Craven County Public Library and the Havelock Friends of the Library wish everyone a safe and Happy Holidays!

Updated post from Margie Garrison, Librarian:

“The dean of the Havelock campus of Craven Community College has informed us that the air conditioning system has broken and cannot be repaired. A new one has been ordered and should be available in six to eight weeks.  The library is currently closed but we are intently looking into ways to open with limited hours and limited services. We will let you know as soon as we can.”

Thank you for your patience.
